Question for us all

There are questions to be asked about eligibility to vote, if there truly is to be a referendum on Scottish devolution

Sir, Who will get to vote in a referendum on Scottish devolution? Only people on an electoral roll in Scotland? Non-Scots living in Scotland? Scots-born people, such as am I, but living elsewhere?

Surely this is a question for all UK residents, with the distinct possiblity that residents of England and Wales, not to mention Northern Ireland, will vote for a break with Scotland when a majority of Scots might not.

We need a lot more information before a deal is hatched up, be that by Mr Cameron or Mr Salmond.
